getting settled in

I unpacked more boxes and trying to finish organizing my apartment. It's daunting to think that I probably moving again in one year-maybe closer to Milwaukee. Racine doesn't fit me. No nice restaurants, no nice parks, etc.

My job.... what can I say? I'm still adjusting.

I went to Racine Bible Church this past Sunday. It has a more traditional service. Mostly caucasians...decent teaching. From the comments the pastor made, it seems like a very ultra conservative church. I'll go visit a church in Oak Creek next. It's hard to find a good church to attend. I can make friends easily, but finding a sound Bible teaching church... much more difficult.

I'm praying for a good church. I'm praying for a mentor. I'm praying for a place I can help people. We'll see what God has for me.

I've been here for about 2 weeks now and it's been interesting. I got pulled to be on call after 2 days of working at the hospital. My family was here and I didn't really get to spend time with them. They understood, though.

It's definitely different from the hospital in Lafayette. I work harder here and more hours. They also pay me more here so it balances out. Already there have been changes taking place. We'll see how it goes this coming year. I may or may not stay. So far, i'm staying , but....

This past weekend I went to Annie and Dan's wedding in Rochester, MN. It was great seeing everyone again. I stayed with Emily and it was just nice to have low key evenings to sit, chat, and catch up. I do miss her. I was discussing with her just how odd it felt for me. Seeing everyone getting married and having babies. I couldn't help but feel "left out" so to speak. Someday.... I'd rather be single than marry any of the guys I've dated :-)

God is good. I'm blessed. I have a great job, a family that loves me, and great life-long friends.
